  2. #BassirouDiomayeFaye I'm curious how succesful the approach to "replace French as [#Senegal]'s official language" is this time – when parliamentary debates are still being held in #Wolof but logged in French. When kids are still instructed with a foreign language from elementary school days on.

    #Senghor or #Wade also came up with ideas and dropped them upon sight on power.
